Hello to all members, passers-by, curious onlookers, and shy lurkers, and welcome to our regular daily check-in post. Just leave a comment below to let us know how your current projects are progressing, or even if they're not.

Checking in is NOT compulsory, check in as often or as seldom as you want, this community isn't about pressure it's about encouragement, motivation, and support. Crafting is meant to be fun, and what's more fun than sharing achievements and seeing the wonderful things everyone else is creating?

There may also occasionally be questions, but again you don't have to answer them, they're just a way of getting to know each other a bit better.


This Week's Question: What do you wish you could get right first time, every time?


If anyone has any questions of their own about the community, or suggestions for tags, questions to be asked on the check-in posts, or if anyone is interested in playing check-in host for a week here on the community, which would entail putting up the daily check-in posts and responding to comments, go to the Questions & Suggestions post and leave a comment.

I now declare this Check-In OPEN!

I hope this illness is over soon.

Maggie went home with an adopter yesterday!

House crafting (siding repair and painting) starts tomorrow. I am a little run down because it was chilly again but warming up now.

Way to go! You're making awesome progress. You've probably answered this before but are the mini teddies for any particular project or event?

They are for this year’s Xmas fair.

Managed to crochet a few repetitions of a round on the parasol doily before I was set upon by curious baby. Hoping to make more progress later this week.

I have successfully set in the sleeves of my latest jacket project. Though I am blowing my own horn, the sleeve heads look perfect. Not a pucker in sight.
